Priority Group Updates
Web Accessibility Team – Mike distributed the revised policy – the only changes that were made was defining web master and administrator information. He did indicate that Jenny Zorn wanted him to include statements from the distance learning policy which will go in the purpose section. Jim recommended that there’s verbiage from the Chancellor’s office that provides good material on instructional versus web page materials.
Instructional Materials Team – Jim reported that the instructional materials team has been meeting regularly. Right now they’re collecting materials and documents in regards to instructional materials. Davena reported that one challenge is getting faculty input and representation on the instructional materials team.
Procurement Team – Amy reported that the challenge with the procurement priority is defining responsibilities in procurement of materials that should be accessible. Who should be responsible – individual departments or purchasing? It was suggested that it would be helpful to discuss procurement issue at admin council.
Currently, the procurement team is reviewing a policy from Eddie Choy; they will personalize it to CSUSB and submit draft policy to group.
Presidential Commitment:
The Chancellor’s Office distributed a new coded memorandum that calls for a presidential commitment to all three priorities. Lorraine will discuss the new coded memorandum with the VPC today. Beth reported that during her community of practices teleconference, Mary Cheng from the chancellor’s office indicated that even with a presidential commitment, all three priorities will still need to have policies in place by March 30th. Lorraine will confirm this.
Draft Budget Development
Lorraine asked the group to start thinking about developing a draft budget for the initiative. She will email a preliminary budget that San Diego developed.
Miscellaneous
Lorraine reported on the executive sponsors teleconference. Most of the questions at the teleconference were directed towards the complexity of instructional materials. CSUSB is ahead in most areas of the initiative. Procurement priority is having difficulty in defining who will have responsibility for validating purchase of accessible software and equipment. Also some campuses are still in need of Hi Software training – Lorraine suggested we could expand ACM’s training to outside entities. Mike suggested that it would be a good idea if everyone can come to the campus or if ACM could do the training by videoconference to the other institutions.
